Ingrown pubic hair s

Ingrown pubic hair s

I have been shaving and/or trimming my pubic hair for quite some time now, however, it wasn't until recently that I realized that as the hair grew back, it would kind of pierce through a few different pieces of bunched up skin on my penis, and in a sense, sort of sew up or stich up some of my skin in the area to the extent that I lost a few inches (length and girth) due to this trapped skin.

Hi,

This could be due to ingrown hairs or infection f the hair follicles called folliculitis. This does not effect the lenght and girth though.

It would be best to consult your doctor for a proper clinical evaluation , so that if antibiotics are needed they can be prescribed.

You should avoid shaving and trimming for some time now.

Let us know about how you are doing and if you need any further information.

Regards.
